If you prep the surface properly, it stays fine, I've used it on lightbars before and it held up to abuse!

EDIT: I also added the OEM Vent Visors and I freakin love them

I had to drill holes in my hatch to put that spoiler on... it made me nervous to drill holes directly into the paint but i would probably pay to have it done before doing it again.

Adam,

I have a request for you if you don't mind. When I ordered my car the hardest decision for me was the rain guards. I went back and forth and decided against them just because I think they look too big. I love rain guards and have put them on every car I've owned.

Would it be possible to take a close up of the front door visor and maybe a pic from the inside out of the visor? I'd appreciate it very much!

There isn't one - there is a cold temp light (the blue one you see in the morning) and a hot temp light, which I'd hope you haven't seen. Nobody has a newer model, it is still 2012 last time I checked!

Hey adam07specb. Did you have to get new tpms or were you able to transfer the stock sensors over?

I could have re used them, but I decided to just get new ones instead of ripping my stock wheels and tires apart.
The dealership programmed them in about 5 minutes

I bought the ebay ones and they don't even compare to Lamin-x, i demanded my money back since they bunch like cellophane at the edges even with a heat gun

I installed the Subaru front and rear Splashguards on my 2012 Impreza 4 door.
It was easy. No drilling. Just removing stock plastic fasteners and replacing them with new fasteners supplied with the splashguards.

I paid the $20 something for the yellow fogs from the linked seller - they worked great, easy directions and they stuck without much hassle and no bunching at all. I just warmed them up by rubbing between my hands too, didn't even bother with a blow dryer and they turned out perfect. Definitely worth the extra $ to get a product designed for the task.

I like the plastic dip on the grill, can you possibly post some better pictures of it where it's not as dark? Thanks

Got mine today!

Here's some cell pics at delivery:





Weather was getting gloomy, looking like snow tonight (great to test the AWD) so when it all clears up, she'll get cleaned and pose for a proper photo shoot.
